Pitch Your Burg:
Wellington vs. Baku

[Pitch Your Burg challenges residents of cities given the short shrift on Gridskipper to convince you, the educated reader, that their metropoli indeed deserve more (or any) coverage. Unedited pitches from city residents or fans of same are presented for your review, followed by a poll. Vote to determine whether the city gets special survey post and subsequent coverage, or the cold, cold shoulder of permanent rejection. If you think your city deserves a shot on Gridskipper, send in your pitch -- 200-300 words, with at least one good, punchy image and as many local links as possible -- to tips@gridskipper.com.]

Now that you've read, considered, and evaluated the pitches from Wellington and Baku, it's time to choose which city is worth investigating and celebrating, and which city shall be consigned to the dustbin of history. Vote below, and check back in a week to see results, with coverage of the winner following shortly thereafter.

UPDATE: Yes, that blogpoll.com survey blew chunks, so we're returning to our glorious in-house polling, which has improved a bit. Vote anew below if you did so with the blogpoll krep, and check back with this post for current results.

UPDATE 2: The polling got effed up due to tech problems. New, restarted poll can be found here.
